Description

The High Street as we know it is already dying. Veteran retailer Bill Grimsey argues that it's too late to save our down-at-the-heel towns and cities from decline. In fact, the indisputable truth is that British towns are losing their identity at an alarming rate. Independent stores that were once vital to town life are disappearing at a staggering 50 shops per week. Some towns now have as many as 24% of their shops shuttered. Grimsey sets out to explore what went wrong and what we can learn from our mistakes, in the hope of finding a new way forward for our shattered town centres. By examining the impact of changing shopping habits on our high streets, Grimsey seeks to uncover the truth behind the decline of British towns and cities.
